fe97064c28 MSI: Export the PCI_BUS_FLAGS_NO_MSI flag in sysfs
Export the PCI_BUS_FLAGS_NO_MSI flag of a PCI bus in the sysfs files
of its parent device and make it writable. Could be used to:
* disable MSI on a device which has not been blacklisted yet
* allow MSI when some setpci hacks enable MSI support (for instance
  on the ServerWorks HT2000 chipset where the MSI HT cap is disabled
  by default).
Architecture where some bus have no parent chipset cannot use this
strategy to change MSI support.

If the chipset does not have a subordinate bus, its 'bus_msi' file
is empty.

Also document and warn about the possible danger of changing the flag.

24334a1253 MSI: Factorize common code in pci_msi_supported()
pci_enable_msi() and pci_enable_msix() use the same code to detect
whether MSI might be enabled on this device. Factorize this code in
pci_msi_supported(). And improve the documentation about the fact
that only the root chipset must support MSI, but it is hard to
find the root bus so we check all parent busses MSI flags.

3f79e107f7 MSI: Cleanup existing MSI quirks
Move MSI quirks in CONFIG_PCI_MSI, document why the serverworks quirk
does not simply set PCI_BUS_FLAGS_NO_MSI, and create a generic quirk
for other chipsets where setting PCI_BUS_FLAGS_NO_MSI is fine.

7a8d29cec7 i2c-stub: Chip address as a module parameter
i2c-stub: Chip address as a module parameter

Add a mandatory chip_addr parameter to i2c-stub. This parameter
defines to which chip address the driver will respond, instead of
reponding to all addresses as before. The idea is to prevent the
users from loading i2c-stub at random and being then confused by
the results of sensors-detect or other user-space tools.

i2c-dev: Use a list for data storage

Use a list instead of a static array for storing the i2c-dev data.
Given that most systems have less than 10 i2c busses, most of the
space was wasted, so this saves around 1 kB of memory (2 kB on 64-bit
archs.)

The drawback is that lookup was in O(1) and is now in O(N), but given
that the values of N are always small, I don't think this is a problem.

0637a70a5d [PATCH] x86: Allow disabling early pci scans with pci=noearly or disallowing conf1
Some buggy systems can machine check when config space accesses
happen for some non existent devices.  i386/x86-64 do some early
device scans that might trigger this. Allow pci=noearly to disable
this. Also when type 1 is disabling also don't do any early
accesses which are always type1.

This moves the pci= configuration parsing to be a early parameter.
I don't think this can break anything because it only changes
a single global that is only used by PCI.

81107bf531 Driver core: Remove unneeded routines from driver core
This patch (as783) simplifies the driver core slightly by removing four
unnecessary _get and _put methods.

It is vital that when a driver is removed from its bus's klist of
registered drivers, or when a device is removed from a driver's klist
of bound devices, that the klist updates complete synchronously.
Otherwise the kernel might try binding an unregistered driver to a
newly-registered device, or adding a device to the klist for a new
driver before it has been removed from the old driver's klist.

Since the removals must be synchronous, they don't need to update any
reference counts.  Hence the _get and _put methods can be dispensed
with.

f2eaae197f Driver core: Fix potential deadlock in driver core
There is a potential deadlock in the driver core.  It boils down to
the fact that bus_remove_device() calls klist_remove() instead of
klist_del(), thereby waiting until the reference count of the
klist_node in the bus's klist of devices drops to 0.  The refcount
can't reach 0 so long as a modprobe process is trying to bind a new
driver to the device being removed, by calling __driver_attach().  The
problem is that __driver_attach() tries to acquire the device's
parent's semaphore, but the caller of bus_remove_device() is quite
likely to own that semaphore already.

It isn't sufficient just to replace klist_remove() with klist_del().
Doing so runs the risk that the device would remain on the bus's klist
of devices for some time, and so could be bound to another driver even
after it was unregistered.  What's needed is a new way to distinguish
whether or not a device is registered, based on a criterion other than
whether its klist_node is linked into the bus's klist of devices.  That
way driver binding can fail when the device is unregistered, even if
it is still linked into the klist.

This patch (as782) implements the solution, by adding a new bitflag to
indiate when a struct device is registered, by testing the flag before
allowing a driver to bind a device, and by changing the definition of
the device_is_registered() inline.

0f397f8650 PCI: enable driver multi-threaded probe
This provides a build and run-time option to turn on multhreaded probe
for all PCI drivers.  It can cause bad problems on multi-processor
machines that take a while to find their root disks, and play havoc on
machines that don't use persistant device names for block or network
devices.

But it can cause speedups on some machines, my tiny laptop's boot goes
up by 0.4 seconds, and my desktop boots up several seconds faster.

Use at your own risk!!!

d779249ed4 Driver Core: add ability for drivers to do a threaded probe
This adds the infrastructure for drivers to do a threaded probe, and
waits at init time for all currently outstanding probes to complete.

A new kernel thread will be created when the probe() function for the
driver is called, if the multithread_probe bit is set in the driver
saying it can support this kind of operation.

I have tested this with USB and PCI, and it works, and shaves off a lot
of time in the boot process, but there are issues with finding root boot
disks, and some USB drivers assume that this can never happen, so it is
currently not enabled for any bus type.  Individual drivers can enable
this right now if they wish, and bus authors can selectivly turn it on
as well, once they determine that their subsystem will work properly
with it.

995982ca79 sysfs_remove_bin_file: no return value, dump_stack on error
Make sysfs_remove_bin_file() void.  If it detects an error,
printk the file name and call dump_stack().

sysfs_hash_and_remove() now returns an error code indicating
its success or failure so that sysfs_remove_bin_file() can
know success/failure.

Convert the only driver that checked the return value of
sysfs_remove_bin_file().
